My age makes me Burr
but my spirit is Hamilton
I know there's a fight
but not for my life
The door will close
before I see the light
I feign control
but could submit with one fall
My only strength my voice
Which I will exercise in defense
of the future, yours, not mine.

As creatives we short change our senses. Each adds power to our medium. Describe a taste, recall a smell, see the body language that belies the words but most importantly listen. The melody lies in the silence. #Moonmystic #Writingprompts.

#EkphrasticVoice Your clothing pristine. The keffiyeh wrapped with the precision of a seasoned valet. Your robe cerulean blue and gold. The sky & stars signifying status, yet you've only eyes for the horizon. You are entranced. Mystified. What could hold your attention? #writingprompts

I’ve never seen the moon
Nor have I looked for it.
It appears & disappears
At regular intervals.
It’s supposed to be
Ethereal, mystical, memorable
Can’t prove it by me.
When you spend your time
On relentless backbreaking work The romance of the moon is irrelevant.

The ink isn’t dry yet. When the dust settles watch for the developers watch for the money makers, watch how the people are not allowed to return. Gazans will be people without a country while others will make money off their destruction.
